So are you saying us Democrats know true outrage? I mean during Watergate Nixon claimed it was just partisanship until the tapes became known. Besides without this fake outrage what would late night comedians do for ratings?
Gerry Ford pardoned NIxon to avoid a public spectacle that could have damaged the nation, or so he said. Nancy Pelosi said “Impeachment is off the table.” when the Democrats held the majority, which in my view was HER worst offense as Speaker.
Which, it’s interesting that Republicans keep skating after major criminal acts, and violations of the Constitution (check out Reagan’s guys, like Ollie North, as well) while a blow job or a non-existent “event” keep the elephant’s short-term memories churning.
The real truth that needs to be found is to find out who told the quick reaction forces to stand down and not rescue our soldiers. As much as I despise Hillary, she is probably the scapegoat for Obama himself. The order had to come through military, not state department channels.
It’s been more than a few news cycles ago, but think back to2008. Who was it that " stopped Hillary " then ? Hint : therewasn’t a Republican in sight when it happened.

Why doesn’t the Congress devote the little time they spend in Washington to trying to solve some real problems. We all know this is political theater.

Benghazi is a ruse to distract everyone from Benghazi.

No, it wasn’t. That’s what the “stonewalling” was about. Nixon blocked the special investigator. Benghazi has already had several investigations.

60 people dead in embassy attacks during Bush’s watch. Where was the outrage then?Where was the outrage when Bush ignored warnings about bin Laden?
Answer: Benghzai! Benghazi! Benghazi!
If we keep talking about Benghazi, people will forget Bush’s screw ups.
